A Forensic Linguistic Research Network

Our first Reserach Group meeting will take place on Thursday 17th October in room 3.66 of the John Percival Building from 4.10pm. The Group will consider a paper published in June this year by Dennis Kurzon entitled “Foreign and archaic phrases in legal texts”. The paper is from The International Journal of Speech, Language and the Law Vol 20 no. 1.

The Group is open to anyone who’d like to come along to discuss language and law although obviously reading the paper in advance is fairly essential to this session.

An exciting collaboration began yesterday, 13th March 2013, between CaLL and Cardiff Innocence Project.
Our MA students have begun to examine interview recordings, transcripts and statements in a range of cases which the Innocence Project is currently looking into.
